[Radiance-general] RE: New rtcontrib program - mkillum conflict

[Greg Ward]

Hi Martin,

Rtcontrib required some rather extensive changes to the diffuse  
interreflection methods, which definitely introduced one or two bugs  
that I have since fixed.  You need to make sure you have the latest  
HEAD release, as I suspect you picked up a buggy version of src/rt/ 
ambcomp.c or similar.  If you recompile with last night's HEAD and  
still have problems, send me a list of the options you're using in  
mkillum and I'll see if I can figure it out.  I did my own test runs  
this morning to check that it's behaving correctly, and I couldn't  
find anything wrong.
